I had this discusdion with vps there, but not DeMint. For the most part these think tanks are stuck in the 80s with “panel discussions” & policy papers & have lost da “yuts” who are 99% VIDEO.

DeMint is not a lawyer. To me that makes him even better for SCOTUS, but he is not likely to be nominated.
